That seems a little farfetched.. Kanou knows how heavily defended it is because he used to work for the CGG why would he send two weak ghouls in to gain more allies?

Lol, I thought you're talking about Kaneki + Ayato being beaten up.... but it seems you're talking about the twins. My bad. If it's the twins, just like Z4k said, I think they're just keeping an eye on him, whether on Kanou's order or not. Maybe they're just interested in him? Since he's like a big brother to them (being half-ghouls from Rize's organs).


Yeah we were referring to the twins, I think it's more likely that Kanou want's them to keep an eye on him

Does anyone else think the twins didn't get nearly enough screen time for them to be taken seriously? Smaller nitpick but Kaneki needed more monologuing during the Amon battle.

Apart from that the episode was awesome (especially that Ayato scene).

I totally went gaga with that scene. Damn Ayato putting up such a cute face!!

They could have given the twins more credit and have Suzuya more... well better, Because that scene just sucked... pretty much most of the fighting scenes did.

It was interesting the see Kaneki's kakuja crawling around him. But just because he ask Shinohara a maths question doesn't mean he's crazy him crazy. Where's the screeching and the Kekekekekeh!!? I can't believe even in badass mode he let us down... no the Koreans who animated this let us down... :(

Every anime only watcher I have spoken to thinks Kaneki powered up because he had a centipede in his ear, because of when he says "centipedes... in my ears~"

His dialogue wasn't crazy enough it needed more of this:

Wasn't this Cochlea arc basically Kanou's lab arc? I mean we got the Suzuya fight against the twins, Kaneki vs Shinohara, and a bunch of other similarities. Unless they have a different, unique arc dealing with Kanou planned.

Kanou's lab will definitely happen but some scenes might be different. I don't know if you've seen the new TG PV 2 for the BD/DVD released a few days ago but in it they showed lots of Ishida's draft and there were some panels that should Kanou and Rize. There was also a panel that should Suzuya fighting Tsukiyama and Naki. And yeah the guy is talking about short haired Touka in one of the other PV. She had shorter hair compared to the recent one.

I wish Kakuja Kaneki's state was explored more on this episode.
He was just a full fledged Crazy bastard and a missed opportunity to put the dialogues like "Even an old man is fine",etc.
Hopefully we get something similar to Kaneki piercing Banjou's stomach and going "I'm sorry,I'm sorry,I'm sorry x1000"

I really need to stop comparing this to manga lmfao.

Well you need the manga to be able to understand the anime.
I mean how else would you know how he came about as centipede, we never saw him eat ghouls except for Yamori, plus no one even stated it.
and let's not mention the yin/yang twins,
who were doing exactly this

"And the sense of tragedy-according to Aristotle.comes, ironically enough, not from the protagonist's weak points but from his good qualities. Do you know what I'm getting at? People are drawn deeper into tragedy not by their defects but by their virtues"

What do you mean no one stated it? Tsukiyama literally had an orgasm when he found out ken had started cannibalizing ghouls.

Nah it hasn't. It was supposed to be explained by Tsukiyama but I don't know if they're ever going to touch on the topic of Kakuja. To be honest that's one of my biggest nitpicks so far.

Well, they've said that cannibalizing to ghouls is like ''forbidden fruit''. Although I'll agree that a bit more explaining is in order, however the anime isn't even halfway through the season yet.

Yeah, thought so. They make it seems like Centipede is just a random power-up for Kaneki but since he's also gone insane during the scene, it wasn't that obvious of a power-up I guess.

Some information about the new episodes thanks to OldMcdonald.

Old said:
Episode 7:

 
Directors/storyboarders of the episodes:
Episode 6: Tadahito Matsubayashi
Episode 7: Souichi Shimada
Episode 8: Yoriyasu Kogawa<- This is the episode director of ep 4, and I think it's an action episode. Let's pray for a miracle.


I'll obviously keep my expectations lowered for episode 8 because that guy is horrible at directing action episodes. I'm more interested in episode 7 because it seems Hinami might have a larger role there. Perhaps this is the episode where she meets Takatsuki again.

*Cries* do they hate their fans that much? Why giving that sucky director an action episode?!

Yes season 2 is starting to get more and more disappointing... my hoped have dropped like 300%....

Yup I bet a rewrite of season 2 will be one of my next ideas for a fanfic. or maybe even a parody to satisfy myself...

We still don't know if it is an action episode though. Episode 5 had a good budget so let's hope that episode 8 has the same.

Ditto, no wait that's even to soft for her!! Kaneki needs to give her the feeling of pure torture, slowly and extreeeeeeemely painful! Crush those brains of hers and throw her in the trash!!!

I was disappointing with the bad portray of Suzuya's past, where's the cute crossdressing? Why hasn't Touka's hair grown? and the interaction between Amon and Akira was... well still not comparable with the manga.

Now I wonder, what will become of our Kaneki? His mind really seems to be fucked up, not as fucked up as the manga shows, but still.

BTW did anyone also get disturbing thoughts when Amon was training? Seriously I swear if anyone were to walk in while I was watching that scene they might have thought I was watching Japanese porn. XD

I think is kind of relevant to the character, it meant that his guilt was so much that he wouldn't even let himself touch her, and felt even more guilty for wanting to.
It made you realize how important it was to Amon the responsibility of protecting her, even from himself.
I mean he even didn't let her kiss him.
That is how obsessive was his sense of responsibility and morality.

I don't think they completely took it out. I mean, the scene basically pans over her body while she's laying there, doesn't take a genius to figure out what Amon's thinking in that moment. But yeah they could've made it a little more obvious.

I'm satisfied they had suzuya backstory developed for this episode and some Akira and Amon scenes.
I wonder how Kanou will show up?
The Raid is coming up so I hope they will pull out the best for Arima Kaneki fight like with they did for Yamori Kaneki fight.

yes... yes it is relevant. a good amount of his character is defined by this scene. out of respect for her and kureo, Amon chooses to overcome cardinal temptation by physically disciplining himself with exercise...just like when that one dude got killed by touka and he went to work out in his house...besides the fact that its hilarious i really respected his character for having such strong morals, it displayed his mental fortitude. this anime scene didn't really touch on that. it just made him seem regretful about kureo with no real incentive to do 7,890 something pushups.

Visual Novels, Light Novels and Manga are different mediums. You can make a complete 1:1 adaptations with manga, but not with VN and LN since they contains many world-buildings that can't be included easily in the story-telling. Though you can make faithful VN/LN adaptations by keeping and staying true to important elements/plots of said VN/LN without cutting out too much of the world-buildings and character developments which is what ufotable is currently doing for F/SN.

Anyway, I don't really have any more expectations for this adaptations by Pierrot except for them to make a decent Kaneki vs Arima and Eto vs Arima since the story is already a mess as it is. Let's all hope they remake the whole TG manga first, by another studio ofc, in a few coming years before touching :re or it will be too late/much even for :re remake.

But there hasn't been any 1:1 manga adaptations that are similar to Tokyo ghoul in these recent years. To name some Magi, Nanatsu no Taizai, Parasyte and Terraformars all had changes when compared to the manga which consists of either rushing and skipping the material, bringing some anime original stuff or modernising some scenes. Heck even Attack on titan can be added on that list. All of the above series are titles more popular than Tokyo ghoul yet none of them had a 1:1 adaptation so I wonder what made the mangareaders think it will have one despite being limited to 12 episode?

Visual Novels, Light Novels and Manga are different mediums. You can make a complete 1:1 adaptations with manga, but not with VN and LN since they contains many world-buildings that can't be included easily in the story-telling. Though you can make faithful VN/LN adaptations by keeping and staying true to important elements/plots of said VN/LN without cutting out too much of the world-buildings and character developments which is what ufotable is currently doing for F/SN.

Anyway, I don't really have any more expectations for this adaptations by Pierrot except for them to make a decent Kaneki vs Arima and Eto vs Arima since the story is already a mess as it is. Let's all hope they remake the whole TG manga first, by another studio ofc, in a few coming years before touching :re or it will be too late/much even for :re remake.

But there hasn't been any 1:1 manga adaptations that are similar to Tokyo ghoul in these recent years. To name some Magi, Nanatsu no Taizai, Parasyte and Terraformars all had changes when compared to the manga which consists of either rushing and skipping the material, bringing some anime original stuff or modernising some scenes. Heck even Attack on titan can be added on that list. All of the above series are titles more popular than Tokyo ghoul yet none of them had a 1:1 adaptation so I wonder what made the mangareaders think it will have one despite being limited to 12 episode?

The only decent adaptation you mentioned above is AoT and I would call that a 1:1 adaptation since they only change little things which were asked by the author himself. Even the anime-original stuff makes sense to the story instead of being useless fillers. Maybe you can look into manga adaptations by studio like I.G, Madhouse or Bones. Example, Hunter x Hunter and FMA:B.

As for me, the fact that Pierrot are doing this already lowered my expectations and the fact S1 had 12 eps just crushed all my hopes. That's why I'm just hoping that another studio like I mentioned above will pick up the manga for a remake instead of another adaptations from Pierrot. I do agree with you about these manga-readers having expectations from this season when it's evident how bad S1 was are kinda annoying.

I guess no one likes to answer this question, but i'm going to ask you too. Do you have the draft that they use for the anime to judge this adaptation? Can you share that with the rest of the world? I'd very much like to see what it contains.

Some of your complains are way too hilarious to take seriously. They kept the important scenes yet you guys still expect a 1:1 adaptation which even ufotable failed to do with F/sn?


C'mon man no one is expecting a 1:1 adaption
but how on earth can you say that the first season and now this original route do the manga justice? (and I say this as someone who watched the anime first)

Some changes are ok but Pierrot went too far

Oh, so you are the one that has the draft given to them by Ishida... can you share what it contains? I'd very much like to see how they are not following that.
